Rebecca Black Long Straight Brunette and Purple Two-Tone Hairstyle with Side Swept Bangs


Added: 12 Aug 2012
Rebecca Black unveiled a look that drew in some mixed reviews. The American singer added some funky pink tips to her chestnut hair and styled it up with a side hair part and some loose waves. Rebecca usually wears her hair straight, sometimes with a fringe, but with her new color it seems she wanted to go for a wavier look.

The raspberry pink color is a beautiful match with her chocolate tresses- in fact, her hair colors look absolutely delicious! The soft waves also suit her round face shape nicely. The only thing that let this down was that the ends were faded out, leaving her hair looking dry and lackluster. If you want to dye your tips a bright color, make sure to top it up regularly so the color remains vibrant.

Another problem with this look was the technique. Rebecca's colorist could have left some more brunette throughout so that her hair didn't turn out completely brown on top and then all pink on the bottom, without any blending. Transitioning your hair color from top to bottom can be difficult, but with the right colorist it will look very cool.

This wild ombre 'do is jagged cut at the length to achieve a textured look and feel and is complimented by jagged cut layers through the back and sides which lighten the length. The long bangs are side swept to the side and completes the over-all look magnificently. What's your verdict on Rebecca Black's hair- is it a winning look?

step 1

Apply styling mousse to damp hair, using your palm as a measuring guide, and evenly distribute it along the hair shaft. Styling mousse will add hold and can help achieve better results.


step 2

Using your blow-dryer, flip your head upside down and dry your hair using your fingers until your hair is completely dry. Remember, the messier, the better.


step 3

Using the corner of your comb and standing in front of a mirror find the middle of your left eye and then drag the comb straight up slowly until you reach your hairline and then continue back in a straight manner to achieve an even left part. A side part is great for longer face shapes because it creates the illusion of width.


step 4

Apply a small amount of wax to your fingertips and then lightly piece and pinch the ends of your hair.


step 5

Apply a very small amount of smoothing shine to the palms of your hands and then run it through the mid-lengths and ends of your hair. Be careful not to add any to the roots or a large amount to any section of the hair as smoothing shine can be very heavy on the hair, weighing it down and making it appear oily.


step 6

To finish, apply a minimal amount of hairspray from an arms length distance to the top, sides and back. Take care not to use too much or you will end up with a white, flaky residue which looks like dandruff.
